Doubts have emerged over whether all-rounder Hardik Pandya will be able to play the next two or three matches for India after he suffered an ankle injury oppo
India may have to go without the all-rounder for their important game against world champions England on 29 October in Lucknow city oppo
Pandya may have to skip the next two or three matches in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 as well, a source from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has said oppo
The star cricketer suffered an ankle injury while bowling against Bangladesh oppo
He was sent for scans and has since been under the care of the BCCI’s doctors at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru oppo
India, the hosts of the World Cup 2023, have won all five games in the tournament and are the only unbeaten side that already have a leg in the semi-finals oppo
The side can afford to rest Pandya for the next two games at least, which will allow the all-rounder to recover fully before the knock-out round oppo

While the swelling on his left ankle has subsided considerably, he will start bowling only towards the weekend oppo
Right now, important is to give him time to recover,” the BCCI source told news agency PTI oppo
“Pandya has suffered a bad sprain but fortunately not a fracture oppo
The BCCI medical team wants to take maximum precautions oppo
He is likely to miss the next two to three matches oppo
The team wants him fully fit for the knock-out stage oppo
”After the Bangladesh match, India captain Rohit Sharma said there was “no major damage” to Pandya oppo
The all-rounder subsequently missed India’s match against New Zealand oppo
To make up for Pandya’s all-round skills, India drafted Suryakumar Yadav and replaced Shardul Thakur with Mohammed Shami against New Zealand oppo
While Virat Kohli ran Suryakumar for two runs, Shami, playing his first game of World Cup 2023, bowled a match-winning spell and became the first ever Indian bowler to claim two five-wicket hauls in a 50-over World Cup oppo
With the Lucknow track expected to be slightly inclined to spinners, Team India could opt to bring in Ravichandran Ashwin instead of Shami oppo
The move would also provide an extra batting cushion down the order oppo
India is at the top of the World Cup 2023 table with 10 points oppo
After the England game, the side is due to take on Sri Lanka on 2 November at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium oppo

As often was the case amid an American society embedded in racism in the 1980s, Muhammed Ali put it best oppo
Advising black racing driver Willy T Ribbs, the people’s champion made his point in no uncertain terms: “There are Blacks in my sport oppo
But there are no Blacks in your sport oppo
“They’re going to want to kill you oppo
”Yet for all the death threats, discrimination and abuse, Ribbs had long decided that the only option was to meet the uphill battle head-on oppo
He made history in 1986 when he became the first Black driver to test an F1 car oppo
Five years later, he was the first to race in the Indy 500, one of the world’s most famous events oppo
But on the course of that journey, Ribbs faced it all oppo
Don’t let me tell you though; let the man himself oppo
“Of course, there were death threats, the n-word,” he reflects, in a slow but deadpan fashion that tells you the wounds have long since healed oppo
Instead, the metaphorical bruises are worn with pride oppo
“But I enjoyed it oppo
It didn’t make me mad, it was fun oppo
I was going to dish out what they were dishing out to me, it never scared or intimidated me oppo
I actually enjoyed it because it was motivating oppo
I was never going to play the victim, that was not Willy T Ribbs oppo
”Now 68, Ribbs is an ambassador for Formula One, raising awareness for diversity and equality oppo
A role given a matter of months after his riveting biopic movie, Uppity, was released in 2020 oppo
So titled because that was his nickname in motorsport circles – “and he loved it” oppo
But to this interview, he’s late oppo
And he apologises, quipping: “Race drivers are never late, you know! Or they’re not supposed to be…”Son to William “Bunny” Ribbs, an amateur racer himself, Willy’s career path was set in stone from day dot it seems oppo
It was the racing way or the highway oppo
Ribbs faced an avalanche of racism and abuse throughout his career (Getty)“I was born in this sport,” he tells The Independent, from his home in Texas oppo
“I watched it from three years old when my dad was racing, watching the likes of Jim Clark and Graham Hill oppo
That’s all that was discussed in the family oppo
We didn’t discuss any other sport oppo
“I was lucky, I think oppo
At nine years old, I knew what I wanted to do and I knew what my career path was going to be oppo
Most kids that age don’t know what the hell they’re going to do, but I did oppo
And I didn’t want to be an amateur at it – I wanted it to be a profession and I wanted it to be Formula One oppo
”He learned his craft, in the UK, racing alongside future F1 world champion Nigel Mansell in Formula Ford in the mid-1970s oppo
He raced in Nascar and the Trans-Am Series, later on, too oppo
But his F1 calling, in ’86, came in the Portuguese town of Estoril oppo
Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham team – “Bernie has always been good to Willy T Ribbs” – gave the American the chance to buck the trend and become a true trailblazer oppo
But the tag was not something he felt comfortable with at the time oppo
Ribbs made history in an F1 test in 1986 and in the Indy 500 in 1991 (Getty)“All that mattered was I thought of myself as a race driver,” he says oppo
“I had two responsibilities: to myself and to my team oppo
For those who record social history, that’s their job [to say trailblazer] – but I’m not going to carry that weight on my shoulders oppo
“Sure oppo
I was a role model because I was doing something no other Black kid had done oppo
And great, if that’s the category they want to put me in and how they want to document it oppo
But for me? It was about going fast oppo
”It was a mindset of not bowing to the status quo, embodied most especially in the late 20th century by Ali oppo
“What I admired about him the most was not his oppo boxing skills,” Ribbs says of Ali oppo
“What I admired about him was his resolve as a man, not to be squashed, manipulated or controlled oppo
Ali said: ‘You have to let them know that you can’t be killed, there’s nothing they can do to you, and then they’ll leave you alone for a while oppo
’”Now in motor racing, the baton has been passed on to seven-time Formula One world champion and the sport’s only Black driver Lewis Hamilton, whom Ribbs is full of praise about oppo
“Lewis Hamilton, after seven world titles and more victories than any other human being, gets unfairly targeted,” insists Ribbs oppo
“If you can equate it to Tiger Woods, what did Tiger Woods do for golf? He broadened the audience oppo
The attention went off the chart oppo
That’s exactly what happened in F1 – Lewis Hamilton has been Formula One’s Tiger Woods oppo
“He’s a very kind man oppo
He’ll let it roll off, turn the other cheek – I wasn’t that way oppo
He deals with it and in a lot of cases it’s unfair oppo
Then again, he is in an environment which was not nearly as brutal as I was dealing with oppo
Willy T Ribbs was treated differently oppo
”The third-person references point to a man who is now comfortable in his own skin; in the significance of the struggle – and what it means to many around the world oppo
And despite a sport notoriously still dominated by white men, progress is being made oppo
“One thing I love about Formula One is not only is it evolving commercially around the world, it’s evolving socially,” he says oppo
“When F1 hired me, I asked them: ‘What made you make this call?’“They said: ‘We watched your film and we thought you’d be the perfect person for inclusion and equality in Formula One oppo
’“I said: ‘Well, you called the right guy’ oppo
